    Of those you’re considering, I’d pick Godzilla Premium. Personally, I’m staying away from JJP because of their recent customer service fiasco…totally taking their customers for granted. That being said I love my JJP POTC, but I bought it before they showed me how little they really care about their customers. But that’s just my opinion.

    Quoted from Ajoelson579:

    Hate to rehash something that's probably been beat to death (I also don't want to derail this thread), but I have been under a rock. What is the short version? Last I heard, they were going to be the great new hope of pinball with their LCD screens and colorchanging LEDS.

    There’s a lot to rehash over the JJP issues. There are several Pinside threads you can read that will bring you up to speed. But the bottom line is that JJP had NUMEROUS chipping and pooling issues with their latest release, GNR. People’s playfields started breaking up/chipping, etc. after less than 100 plays. There were also numerous problems with the parts in their games breaking, not being put together correctly. And JJP changed their warranty in the middle of the run to stop replacing damaged playfields. Customers couldn’t get ahold of their customer service department (no call backs). And JJP raised the price of their LEs twice during their run. There’s more to it, but you get the gist. I was a big JJP fan, but no longer. I refuse to support a company that treats its customers so horribly.

    Quoted from Ajoelson579:

    I got out and played a few games. Really impressed with everything these days! Elvira‘s house of horrors stood out! Godzilla also seemed pretty awesome, but I didn’t get enough time in on it. I didn’t find any JJP on my travels and I couldn’t get a turn on Batman, as both places we visited were pretty crowded. Iron maiden was fun, as was jurassic Park. I got the highest score on Munsters, which is a bad sign… lol
    Right now I am leaning towards picking up Godzilla and Elvira‘s House of horrors (if I can get my hands on one).
    The only Willy Wonka I’m aware of near me is in Salem Massachusetts, which is bonkers crazy this time of year. We’ll see if I can get over there sometime soon it may have to wait until after Halloween.
    Thanks again everyone!

    My two cents: I’d pick Godzilla Premium over Elvira HOH. Elvira is a lot of fun, but I like more stuff on my playfields. There’s too much open/under utilized space on Elvira. But Godzilla, especially the premium with its collapsing bridge, has so much going on. In a home environment I think it would keep you interested longer than Elvira.

    Quoted from Yelobird:

    Love all the votes for Godzilla Premium yet not a single person has played it! Lol. Vote based on a picture over all games.

    True, but I put in some serious time recently on Godzilla Pro, watched the videos (and pics) of the Premium and played Elvira HOH a lot. Therefore I think I can intelligently recommend Godzilla Premium over HOH. I’m not basing my recommendation on a simple glance at a picture.
